About Care Initiatives

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Care Initiatives is a non-profit healthcare organization that provides a range of services to the federal government, primarily through contracts with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The company operates multiple specialty care facilities across Iowa, offering nursing home services, rehabilitation, long-term care, hospice, assisted living, and senior housing. Through its various subsidiaries, Care Initiatives has secured numerous federal contracts to deliver community nursing home services and related analytical reporting for the VA's Veterans Health Administration (VHA), specifically within Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23), which covers eight Midwestern and Plains states.

The majority of Care Initiatives' federal contract work involves providing nursing home services to veterans and producing EXPRESS reports analyzing nursing home spending, expenditures, and utilization for VISN 23's healthcare programs. These reports are typically delivered on a quarterly or annual basis and are used to inform the VA's fiscal management and healthcare delivery strategies. Care Initiatives performs this work through its various subsidiaries, including Lantern Park Specialty Care, Northcrest Specialty Care, Belle Plaine Specialty Care, Oakwood Specialty Care, Eldora Specialty Care, West Ridge Specialty Care, State Center Specialty Care, Fonda Specialty Care, and Stratford Specialty Care. The contracts are typically awarded as firm-fixed-price delivery orders, ranging in value from a few thousand dollars to over a million dollars. Notably, these contracts are not designated with any set-aside provisions, indicating that Care Initiatives competes for them in full and open competition.

Care Initiatives holds several Indefinite Delivery Contracts (IDCs) with the VA, which serve as vehicles for issuing task orders for specific services. These IDCs have potential values ranging from $577,500 to $10,000,000 and typically cover periods of five years. The largest IDCs, valued at $10,000,000 each, were awarded to Lantern Park Specialty Care and Northcrest Specialty Care in September 2021, running through August 2026. Other significant IDCs include a $2,500,000 contract awarded to Westwood Specialty Care and a $1,700,000 contract to State Center Specialty Care. Under these IDCs, the VA issues task orders for nursing home services and EXPRESS reporting on an as-needed basis. The IDCs allow the VA flexibility in meeting the varying needs of veterans requiring long-term care services across the VISN 23 region, with placements made based on availability and individual preferences.
